The temperature around the two rose several degrees. 

Rosalie could feel her palms sweating. She saw Theodore getting closer and closer, until he finally kissed her lips. 

She closed her eyes, feeling his warmth. 

At first, she thought they wouldn’t kiss again. Little did she know, his kiss wasn’t just a simple one. It escalated gradually, plundering more of her. His large hand gently lifted her nightgown. 

At that moment, Rosalie suddenly came to her senses. She abruptly opened her eyes, and grabbed his hand to stop his increasingly. inappropriate actions. 

“Wait!” 

Theodore instantly froze, and he stared at the tense Rosalie beneath him. He withdrew his hand, cupping her face gently. “Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you.” 

She was always so shy–it seemed he needed to teach her. 

“It’s not about that,” Rosalie stuttered. “I… I have something to tell you. Could you…could you sit up first?”

It was Cynthia again–that woman was always coming between her and Theodore. 

Theodore stared at the caller ID. He was silent for a few seconds, then hung up the phone. 

“Continue.” 

“You’re not going to answer her call?” 

Rosalie was puzzled. He actually hung up on Cynthia’s call, which was unbelievable.

“Rose, just hold on a moment.” He answered the phone and put it to his ear, sounding a bit annoyed. “Didn’t I say if it’s not urgent, don’t call me. You…”

Rosalie clenched the hem of her clothes, a hint of redness creeping into her eyes. “Can’t you not go…?” 

Theodore fell silent, and stared at her blankly. After a while, he 

grabbed the phone from the bedside, lifted the covers, and got out of bed. 

“Theo!” Rosalie cried, stopping him. “Please don’t go!” 

“Cindy’s having heart problems. I have to go! She needs me!”
